Box Score
The Illinois State Redbirds beat the Chicago State women's tennis team 7-0 Saturday afternoon at the Evergreen Racquet Club in Bloomington, IL. The Cougars dropped the doubles point to open play and nearly avoided the sweep with Cali Fuller dropping a 7-6 (7-1), 7-6 (7-2) decision at No. 1 singles. Complete match results below.

"We came out strong in No. 1 and 2 doubles with double breaks but couldn't execute," associate head coach Adesuwa Osabuohien said. "We still have some adjustments to work on, closure at the net and serve game. Our energy was high but we need to work on maintaining consistency but I'm proud of their effort today." 
 
Chicago State will be back in action Saturday, Feb. 5 at the H-F Racquet and Fitness Club to host Bradley at 1 p.m., then will host the University of St. Thomas (8 a.m.) and Saint Francis (2 p.m.) on Sunday, Feb. 6 at the same location.
